Can I See Food as a Blessing and Not a Burden? [Episode 27 With Margaret Feinberg]
It was January of 1989 as my friend, Darlene, and I stood in the kitchen. We were focused on a little stick that would tell us whether or not I was pregnant.

3 Ways You Can Make Food a Place of Healing and Wholeness
It’s time to whet your appetite, tease your taste buds, and get you inspired! In a few weeks, I have a guest on the 4:13 Podcast who you will love, but before she joins us, I asked her to share some good stuff about food for the new year. I knew that if I was impacted by this, you will be too.
My friend, Margaret Feinberg, has been uncovering delicious insights in her new book and Bible study, Taste and See: Discovering God Among Bakers, Butchers, and Fresh Food Makers, and I asked her to share a few with you here. I hope you enjoy her as much as I do!

Where Cheese Squeaks and Heaven Came Down – FGF Highlights, Madison, WI
Have you ever had squeaky cheese? I had my first taste of Wisconsin’s squeaky cheese, plain and fried! Also, we had a dusting of snow while we were there Friday evening – winter is near!

She stepped out in faith and found our host venue High Point Church with Heather Thompson co-leading the event with her. It was such a blessing to see how the Lord used them mightily! I am so proud of them.
Sand in My Shoes and Joy in My Heart – FGF Highlights, Tampa Bay, FL
It was so fun being back in Florida — I grew up in that great state and I still have sand in my shoes! The breeze was balmy and the women were as warm as that Florida sunshine.

Fighting Back with Joy and Sweet Tea – FGF Highlights, Lenoir City, TN
It is so good to be back in Fresh Grounded Faith season! What a fun group of ladies! I love those Tennessee sisters — they make me feel like I’ve come home to hang out with my BFFs that I haven’t seen in years. It was exactly what we needed for our first FGF this month. God is good.
Our volunteers rocked, as did their fearless leader, Sabrina Stamper. Big thanks to all of you! And while I’m at it, thank you to First Baptist Church Lenoir City and the four co-host churches for loving us so well.
And I had some of my favorite people with me this weekend…
